Australia's HSE job market: May 2025
Australia's work health, safety and environment (HSE) professionals are experiencing remarkable job market resilience, with opportunities remaining 52% above pre-pandemic levels despite the nation enduring its slowest economic growth since the early 1990s.
The Safe Step's latest HSE Job Opportunities Index reveals that while safety job advertisements fell 10% year-on-year, this decline is significantly less severe than Australia's broader employment market. The result: significantly more safety opportunities exist today than six years ago, creating a contrast to other professions.
